Sylvia Smith interviewed Congressman Pence about a proposed gas tax increase and quoted him in her story in today's Fort Wayne Journal Journal Gazette.
Key excerpt:
Rep. Mike Pence, R-6th, said the commission report is “overstating the need for federal highway dollars” and agrees with Souder that a tax increase is out of the question.
“With gasoline at $3 a gallon on average in Indiana, I would view any proposal in Washington to raise gas taxes as a horrendously bad idea,” Pence said.
